Off Topic, sorry — I heard a doctor talk once about how male testosterone varies during the day. He was researching how this changes our attitudes. We wake up in the morning with high levels and I've always wondered if this would be the best ...

For me, I am a simple person so I use the KISS indicator. Open a chart, go to monthly view and look for the obvious support and resistances. Do the same for weekly and then daily. I then trade on the 4 hour bar, no more than one trade a day, ...

I read an article on this site a long time ago about the math of your account balance. It is really obvious stuff but seeing it actually written down is important. Basically the argument the post had was that you should 'bet" a set amount every ...

@thelws — With regards to your sig and fools I am personally quite happy the GFC hit when it did. I had been trading well for several months with a smallish account. I was talking to my spouse about our plan to put more money in. I think ...

I'm reminded of a song that goes something like "know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em. Know when to walk away, know when to run". I think trading is like this too. Professional poker players have to learn when not to play just like we do. I ...

I use one entry two exits for my trading. The idea is that you never know how long a trend will go for or how long it will be until there is a large enough pull back that you want to take profit. So my first exit is a set take profit based on ...

1/ You don't have to reinvent the wheel, consider yourself like those little fish that swim along with sharks. What to the retail trader is a great income is to banks petty cash. Go along with the flow, keep your stops large to avoid noise and don't ...

Famous Last Words — Is it me, or is it just too easy to make money on the EUR/USD atm? Short, TP, Short, TP, repeat. I keep waiting for the reversal and have seen several "almost" longs but prudently didn't go in them. It isn't going to be ...

The Super Tax is just a way for the current government to get themselves unelected... and the hosing bubble we have here will more likely result in a flat period than a pop because demand is still strong for housing due to high net immigration. I am ...

The more I take of my charts the more money I seem to make. I'm down to only two "things" (sma 20 and atr 20) and they are more to guide my eye than as rules. If I'm not sure where to put a stop loss I will sometimes use a Fib Retracement but again, ...
